Ottawa Police say the teenager arrested this weekend, in connection with racist graffiti spray-painted on places of worship last week, is still in custody.
Police say the teen is linked to all six incidents.
He's facing 20 charges including six counts of mischief to religious buildings, six counts of uttering death threats, and six counts of breaching youth probation.
He's also facing two counts of possession of a dangerous weapon, but police would not confirm what the weapon was.
